Netherlands accused Russia of provocations in the Arctic

The head of the operations of the Marine Corps of the Netherlands, General Jeff McMutry, said that Russian ships and airplanes were attempting to provoke NATO military forces during exercises in the Arctic. It is reported by The Telegraph.
According to him, during anti-missile defense exercises, Russian ships appear in sight more often and approach NATO troops at a closer distance than earlier in recent decades.
“We also notice that Russian fighters are flying closer to our ships to declare their presence, one might even say, in a provocative manner,” McMutry added.
Earlier, the head of the Ministry of Defense of the Netherlands Anck Beyuveld announced cyberwar with Russia.
